General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi,
Yes, Clenil does have side effects like sleeping problems, depression, nervousness, over excitation&irritability.
These side effects seem more in children. If you find these effects disturbing her schooling & learning, please consult her doctor for changing the dosage or the medication itself.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
